My holidays are supposed to have begun this week, but it doesn’t quite feel like a holiday yet. I just finished data collection for my EE yesterday, so now I’m busy writing out the essay. I’m almost at 3000 words. Finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel…

My EE in pictures:

My 2-storey window-pulley system. The mass is dangling on the handle.

My initial model which I constructed out of scraps I found in some corners of the labs.

The actual setup for the first part of my investigation.

The wooden frame – I sawed and put it together. Yes, I’m quite proud of it.. It was my first time sawing wood. As Tim put it, “murdering pieces of wood…”

The setup for the second part of my investigation. If you see the background, almost the whole lab is empty. There’s usually only a maximum of 3 people working in the lab (and it’s the same few of us) at any one time. Over the past few weeks, I slowly expanded my territory and conquered 2 whole benches.

The tennis racquet which I brought from home and cut up in school.
